Indeed a good learning exercise. If nothing else

Could tell it was a lemon from the add to be fair.

part of the reason for going to see it was to show Sam around the car. unfortunately we couldn't get rid of the seller for long enough to have a decent discussion.

I think if someone wins it unseen we'll be seeing it relisted in the near future

 

 

Yeah it was a great learning experience, but as Carl pointed out, the guy would say "feel free to look at the car" walk off into his house and within 30 seconds, come out chatting again! Now he was a chatty guy anyway, but I thought the worst and that he was doing it to try and stop us from looking in places, but of course I do not know for sure if that was his intention.

 

Nevertheless, I have put a deposit on a different one and will be collecting it this weekend! Hopefully all is well with it as I couldn't take Carl with me to view it, but from what I saw, it looked in far better condition in regards to no bubbles etc.

 

Just want to say thanks to Carl again for spearing me some of his time, I have so much to learn and always really appreciate anyone that can spear their time to teach me.

Fingers crossed its not a lemon too.
